Description from the seller
Natural Rough Ruby - Myanmar (Burma) - 87.30 ct - Untreated
In auction an exceptional specimen of natural rough ruby, coming from Myanmar (historically known as Burma), the homeland of the finest and most sought-after rubies in the world. This crystal stands out for a substantial carat weight of 87.30 carats and shows a vivid red color and translucency when exposed to a light source from below. The stone is completely natural and untreated, preserving the authenticity and unique characteristics of the corundum as it was mined. It features dark natural inclusions typical of the host rock, which attest to its geological genuineness. An ideal piece for both rare mineral collectors and as an investment for cutting or working to create exclusive jewelry.
